Notes:
Air France Handling use the ''Robo Tug'' or also called "powerpush" to do the pushback of their planes from the terminal. Main gear is powered from this remote control machine and captain does the steering on instructions of the powerpush-operator. This has more advantages on the tipical tow bar tractors as is a one man operation (cost saving) and no different towbars required on every kind of plane. This machine is used in many airports for many years but is not the most used.
